Something New: Tales from a Makeshift Bride by Lucy Knisley
4.0
Despite not being very interested in cooking, I picked up Knisleys' "Relish" a few months ago and loved it; her drawings are colorful and delightful, and often very informative, and she perfectly mixed her current love of cooking with her past memories.
Knisley returns with the same style for "Something New": analyzing not only her own current (as of the writing of the book) feelings on her impending marriage, but also looking at the outside influences on those feelings. This makes her book not only an autobiography, but made the reading experience introspective as well.
Overall, I'm eager to keep picking up Knisley's books and highly recommend both "Something New" and "Relish."
